In the blink of an eye, another year passed. In the fourth month of this year, the four vassals of the world-Jiang Huanchu, Marquis of the East, E Chongyu, Marquis of the South, Ji Chang, Marquis of the West, and Hu, Marquis of the North, led 200 vassals each to Zhaoge to meet the Emperor.
At this time, Grand Preceptor Wen Zhong was not in the court. King Zhou favored Fei Zhong and You Hun. Except for the four vassals, most of the vassals bribed these two people in order to keep their peace. Only one vassal was unwilling to do such a dirty thing. It was the famous Marquis of Jizhou, Su Hu, Daji's father.
Fei Zhongyou had been cleaning up the list of gifts, but Su Hu hadn't given them any gifts. The four dukes hadn't given them any gifts (of course, Chonghou Hu had given them gifts). They knew that they were just a fool, so it was normal for the four dukes to ignore them. However, a small dukedom like Su Hu didn't know how to appreciate favors. Therefore, they hated Su Hu and would teach him a lesson sooner or later!
On this day, King Zhou met with 800 vassals. After eating, King Zhou called Fei Zhongyou Hun over and said,""A while ago, my beloved ministers proposed that the four feudal vassals pay tribute to beauties. I wanted to issue an edict, but Shang Rong and the other old ministers advised me. Now that the eight hundred feudal vassals are here, I want to bring up this matter again.”Obviously, King Zhou still wanted women.
You Hun hurriedly said," Your Majesty, the Prime Minister's advice is indeed reasonable. If we really choose a hundred beauties from every town to enter the palace, not only will it waste money and manpower, but it will also increase the cost of the national treasury. Now that the north is still at war, I don't think we can do this!”
Hearing this, King Zhou was a little unhappy, but he knew that Fei Zhongyou would never say such a thing. Now that he said it, there must be another meaning, so he asked,"Then what method do the two beloved ministers have to relieve my pain of longing?”
Fei Zhong hurriedly replied," Your Majesty, I heard that Su Hu, the Marquis of Jizhou, has a daughter called Daji. She is so beautiful that even Chang'e, the moon palace, is inferior to her. Your Majesty can choose her to be your concubine. Besides, you only choose one daughter. It won't disturb the people of the world. The ministers have nothing to say."”
When King Zhou heard that, he was happy, so he quickly said,"Alright then, get Su Hu here immediately!”
Soon, Su Hu arrived.
King Zhou said politely," Minister Su, I heard that you have a daughter named Daji. She is virtuous and beautiful. I want to take her as my concubine. You can also be the father of the country. You can enjoy wealth and be famous in Jizhou forever. What do you think?"”
If other vassals heard that King Zhou wanted to marry her daughter, they might be very happy. However, Su Hu was straightforward and directly reprimanded King Zhou, saying that he should not be lustful and despise the state affairs. King Zhou was furious and ordered people to drag Su Hu out and behead him. Fortunately, Fei Zhongyou begged for mercy, so King Zhou reluctantly let it go and let Su Hu go home and send his daughter here.
As for why Fei Zhong did this and pleaded for Su Hu, it was because they were being held hostage by someone and had no choice.
After Su Hu left, Fei Zhong saw that King Zhou was still angry, so he immediately said,"Your Majesty, please don't be angry. I still have something to say!”
King Zhou then said,"Please speak, my dear minister!"”
Fei Zhong said," In fact, I have a good friend for many years. He is the disciple of the Heavenly Lord of the Origin of Mount Kunlun. His surname is Shen and his name is Gongbao. He and I have a life-and-death friendship. He has three sisters called Meixi. Hu Ximei and Wang Yuxin are all beauties in the world. Su Daji is even more incomparable to the three of them. Since Su Hu is unwilling to offer his daughters, why don't I make the decision and let my brother offer these three beauties to Your Majesty?"”
At this point, everyone should understand, right? Shen Gongbao, the Demonic Priest, had stopped traveling after taking Ah Xiu in. He had returned to the Mountain of Thousands Caves and had only come out not long ago. He had already invaded Zhaoge and controlled the treacherous minister, Fei Zhong and You Hun. He wanted to place the three demons of Xuanyuan Tomb beside King Zhou.
As for the so-called sleeping, with the current mana of the three demons, it was easy for them to make King Zhou fall into an illusion.
King Zhou was overjoyed when he heard that." Alright," he said." Send Shen Gongbao and the three beauties here immediately!"”
Soon, Shen Gongpao, the Demonic Priest, brought the three demons of Xuanyuan Tomb to the palace.
"My sister (Hu Ximei, Wang Yuxin) greets the king!”The three women were dressed in colorful clothes and knelt down to King Zhou. Shen Gongbao, the Taoist priest, stood and bowed to King Zhou."I, Shen Gongbao of Kunlun Mountain, pay my respects to Your Majesty!”
At this moment, King Zhou was completely fascinated by the three beauties in front of him. Damn it, they were too beautiful. King Zhou had never seen such beautiful three beauties before. He immediately said,"Three beauties, rise!"
Then, King Zhou asked Shen Gongbao," Taoist Priest Shen, I see that your three sisters are extremely beautiful. I wonder if you can let them enter the palace to serve the emperor. Taoist Priest can also become the country's uncle and enjoy wealth!"”
Shen Gongpao smiled and said,"It is my honor that Your Majesty has taken a fancy to my three sisters. Of course, I will obey!"”
King Zhou was overjoyed and immediately said,"Conferring the three beauties as concubines, Daoist Priest Shen as the country's uncle, and adding the title of Grand Shang's Imperial Preceptor, food city ten thousand households, reward ten thousand taels!”
When Su Hu left the Meridian Gate, he was furious. After being chased out of the city, his subordinates instigated him and he suddenly had the intention to rebel. Therefore, he wrote a poem at the city gate:
If the monarch breaks the rules of the courtiers, he will destroy the five constant virtues. Su Hu of Jizhou will never go to the Shang Dynasty!
It was said that after King Zhou got his sister and three daughters, he immediately returned to the harem and had a dragon and three phoenixes. At least, that was what he thought.
……
In the Longevity Immortal Palace where King Zhou lived.
At this moment, Meixi was eating fruits elegantly while Hu Ximei and Wang Yuxin were looking around curiously.
"Sister, this palace is really beautiful!”
"Yeah, it's much better than the Xuanyuan Tomb and the Mountain of a Thousand Caves!”
"What's wrong? The two little demons had forgotten their roots so quickly after entering the palace?”Shen Gongpao appeared in front of the three demons with a smile.
"Master!" The three demons ran to Shen Gongpao happily.
"Where's that old pervert, King Zhou?" Shen Gongbao asked with a smile.
"You mean him? He was doing it with a pillow inside!”The younger sister smiled." What emperor? I think it's just that. There's no pressure at all when he uses his illusion!”
"Three little demons, don't be too proud!" Shen Gongbao said," If I didn't help you improve your supernatural power, do you think that your little illusion could break King Zhou's fate of the Human Emperor? Let's not talk so much first. Let's do everything according to plan!”
The three demons agreed.
